Chapter 255: A Threat to Lar
“Let me go!”
In front of the portal, Lar shouted while trying to free herself from Lashar’s hands.
“I won’t let you go. Who knows what kind of danger there is at the other side, you are far too weak at his moment. If you go now, you will just be a burden for Yale. He is the one who chose to go alone, so you must believe in him.”
Since the moment that Lar learned about Yale returning to Nacesai City, she had been insisting in following her, but Lashar stopped her since the first moment because she felt that it was too dangerous for Lar.
Moreover, Lashar couldn’t send any forces from the Larken Clan because that would be like saying that they had already noticed the existence of the True Empire and they wanted to keep that secret as long as possible.
As for Yale’s safety, Lashar didn’t have any worry; she believed that Yale would be able to deal with any problem because she didn’t think that her ancestor was a rash person to run alone towards the danger without enough safety measures.
In fact, Lar’s reason for wanting to go with Yale didn’t have any relation with being worried by his safety. Lar was worried that Yale would meet some pretty girl that didn’t look like a child; due to the complex with her child-like body, she truly feared that Yale ended loving another woman due the other had a good body.
However, if she was present, she could act as a repellent to any women who tried to get closer to Yale.
“Aren’t you tired? Just go to rest and let me go!”
Lar didn’t give up in her struggle even if with her strength she had no way to get free.
Just when Lashar was about to reply again to Lar, the portal reacted and Yale appeared in front of them.
A smile appeared in Lar’s face when Yale appeared, but it disappeared quickly as some more people also appeared following Yale.
Lar had no problems with the presence of Swordmad, George, and Zack, but her gaze was fixed in Aizu; even Lar needed to admit that she was beautiful and considered her as a threat. The existence of someone like her was what she had feared the most when Yale went alone to Nacesai City, and the fact that Yale returned with her put Lar on alert.
Fortunately, she wasn’t the only one who came back with Yale, or Lar would have turned mad at that same moment.
Of course, she didn’t know that Yale went to Nacesai City to save his sister, or she wouldn’t have been surprised by one girl returning with him.
“She is merely at the Novice Rank; if she tries to steal my man, I will teach her a lesson.”
Strictly speaking, Yale wasn’t Lar’s man because he had never agreed to that, but she considered that as she had had children with Yale’s previous life in her previous life, she was the only qualified woman to be with Yale. She could tolerate that Yale didn’t agree to be with her, but she wouldn’t tolerate that a random and weak woman tried to seduce Yale.
Moments later, even Lashar’s face changed because a huge Frost Wolf with a huge pack of wolves following it appeared just after the few humans crossed the portal.
Those beasts weren’t a threat to Lashar, but there was too many of them and if they were to turn crazy and start killing it would be a problem.
“Those beasts are Wyba’s followers; they won’t attack anyone unless that person belonged to the True Empire or had offended us.”
Lashar and Lar were shocked when they heard that part especially because they saw a little half-beast girl with wolf ears sat in the hugest Frost Wolf. That was the first time that they saw Wyba’s half-beast form.
At the start, Yale had planned to ask Wyba to return to the Storage Space before crossing the portal, but at that moment, those wolves appeared and wanted to follow Wyba.
Although a beast horde of only wolves wasn’t as strong as the previous one, they were a great power to use, so there was no way Yale could reject them. Moreover, Wyba liked having some unconditional followers because, with them, Yale wouldn’t make her wait without battling in case of danger. At least commanding the beast horde, she would be helping him.
“What happened with that little girl? Is she Wyba, your little sister? I heard about her before, but she was a human when that man told me about her and right now she is a half-beast.”
Lashar had heard about Wyba, but Herken had only said that she was a little girl who had yet to start training because she was too young, but in front of her, there was a little girl with beast parts, so she was obviously a half-beast and not a normal human.
Moreover, she wasn’t that much weaker than Yale was despite her young looks, which made it even more shocking.
Lar also couldn’t believe that Wyba had surpassed her in level; she was like a master to Wyba, so she didn’t know how to react after seeing that Wyba had surpassed her in power. Of course, that was only in the level of power because in swordsmanship Lar was still superior.
“Wyba is a divine beast, a Time Freezing Wolf; she can change freely between beast form, half-beast form, and human form.”
Even Lashar had never met a divine beast before, but she had heard about the commanding capability the divine beats had towards the normal beasts especially towards those of a related species.
“I will introduce the people who came with me from Nacesai City. I bet that you already knew Swordmad.”
Lashar and Lar nodded; Swordmad had been someone that the Larken Clan wanted to recruit and as he was Yale’s master. Moreover, he was the one who had given the token to check Yale’s life to Nurvey, which even the Larken Clan sued to check that Yale was still alive. Although the Larken Clan only learned about that later on, Swordmad wasn’t someone unknown for them.
Lashar and Lar had studied everything related to Yale since they learned about his true identity, so they were very well informed about the relationship between Swordmad and Yale.
“This guy with the metal golem arm is George. He is a swordsman and also had a huge degree of understanding in golems; everyone claimed that he is the best in Nacesai City.”
George respectfully bowed towards Lashar and Lar; he had a great gratitude towards the Larken Clan because Durgan was the one who helped carry him to the place where the Zhan Clan members were healing people.
Of course, Lashar and Lar had also recognized George once they heard his name and looked to his arm; they had learned that a friend of Yale had lost his arm in the special realm.
“The other guy is called Zack. He was crippled by a member of the True Empire six years ago, but my big sister used Time Healing to save him. He is an archer.”
There wasn’t any reaction when Yale introduced Zack because he hadn’t been in the special realm and archers weren’t something the Larken Clan was fond of.
They just showed pity towards him for having suffered too much in the hands of the True Empire while the Larken Clan still didn’t know anything about it.
“The girl is Aizu. She is my disciple, and she was also in the special realm six years ago. She practices with the sword, but she is also a healer.”
The Larken Clan knew about Lar, but without having seen her in person, she was difficult to recognize.
Lashar didn’t feel strange that Yale brought his own disciple with him when returning, but for Lar that wasn’t good news.
Aizu was Yale’s disciple, so there was no way Lar could act against him if she made a move to seduce Yale because Yale would be angry if she harmed any of his disciples.
Moreover, the other two women that had children with Liye were his disciples, so that status didn’t mean that she wasn’t a threat, it only made Lar taken Aizu even more seriously.
“Lashar, prepare a place for all of them to stay, the beast horde included; they will be great to hunt people outside the city without arousing suspicions that it is related to the Larken Clan, so treat them well.”
Lashar nodded and contacted some men with her Spiritual Sense to move the beast horde towards a huge place in Larken City where they wouldn’t disturb any clan member.
As for the four people that had followed Yale, Lashar decided to let them live in her mansion. There were a lot of free rooms, and the four people were all related to Yale who was an ancestor of the Larken Clan, so she felt that making them live with ordinary members would be too disrespectful.
